Taking a practical approach, this revised book describes database conversion techniques, reverse engineering and forward engineering, and re-engineering methodology for information systems, offering a systematic software engineering approach for reusing existing database systems built with "old" technology. Many examples, illustrations and case studies are used, making the methodology easy to follow.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
From the reviews of the second edition: "This book addresses the problem of how to apply schema integration techniques for information systems, including system migration and reengineering. ... I would recommend this book to someone performing the function of database administrator, or doing database design or another database-related task, or to anyone interested in the database area. They would find this book complementary, and would probably benefit from reading it." (Norita Ahmad, Computing Reviews, December, 2006)
